We are setting up a headless frontend (Nuxt, Vue) for our WordPress site. We pull data via GraphQL.
Now we explore if / hot to make use of Elasticsearch. Any experiences / recommendations how to do the setup?
So far we have only checked the Elasticsearch plugin for WP; but as I understand it this is primarily for making Elasticsearch work within Wordpress.

Welcome @andreasdiehl! Thanks for posting.
I looked around and found a community-supported plugin, [ElasticPress](https://wordpress.com/plugins/elasticpress). However, this may be the plugin you were referring to. There are also a [few other community plugins as well](https://wordpress.com/plugins/browse/elasticsearch) that may be helpful too. When using community plugins in general, always ensure they are compatible with the version you are currently using.
There are also a few Vue.js examples that may be useful as well
- This [Vue.js SearchUI example](https://docs.elastic.co/search-ui/guides/using-with-vue-js)
- [A Vue.js community-supported package](https://github.com/cars10/elasticvue)
If those options aren't a good fit, please provide more details about your objective and we will do our best to help.
Best,
Jessica
